A Better Page Forwarder

'email this page' a la New York TimesEric and Ian have been looking for a better “email this page to a friend" module for a while. Drupal currently has two modules with this kind of functionality, but for various reason neither really did what we wanted. A few months back Ian swapped out the emailthispage module for the forward module, and so what I’ve done is take the forward module a little bit further.

We want our sites to send emails with a crisp and clean look and
really were not happy with the plain text emails which the forward module currently produces. We had the plain text vs. html discussion internally and decided that for what we needed html emails were the way to go. Using html really lets us really produce a clean and organized looking email, and one that can include an image or two as well.
